HT5824 why does my ipad say user name disabled, but on all other devices i can pog into itunes and icloud using my user name

why does my ipad say user name disabled but i can use my user name to log into itunes and icloud on other devices

At this time there is no "solution." You'll simply have to wait the 90 days to re-enable iTunes Match.
For now here is my suggestion. In your User Account, in OS X, sign out of whatever iTunes Store account you are signed in with. Then sign in with your store account and leave it at that. Now sign out of your OS X User Account, sign into your wife's OS X User Account and sign into the iTunes Store with her Apple ID (if necessary sign out of the account first).
Now, you can go back to your OS X User Account and attempt to enable iTunes Match. You will probably get the "wait 90 days" message. If so leave it, mark your calendar, and wait for the 90 days to expire. You can try contacting iTunes Store support at <https://expresslane.apple.com> if you wish, but I really do not know how useful that will be.
Incidentally, you get the message to pay for the service when trying to enable it on your wife's Apple ID because the service has not been purchased using that Apple ID. iTunes Match is designed to be a single-user service that is never signed out of and is associated with one, and only one, Apple ID and a regional store.

    Why does my ipad say i cant make anymore applie ids or an i cloud account abd how do i get an account HELP please !!!!!

    Hello, I had the same problem (repeatedly) until I did this, it works!
    Remove sim, very very lightly rub the sim card's contacts (the metallic parts) with a standard pencil eraser. I suspect its just a micro-residue from the manufacturing process interfering with complete contact.

  • TS3274 Why does my iPad say " No SIM " in the upper left corner

    Why does my iPad say " No SIM " in the upper left corner ?

    Hi Edwardtracey,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    It sounds like you have a cellular data plan and there is no service where you currently are.
    The article below will explain this feature and how to turn the setting on/off.
    The article has more details and screenshots, but I've quoted highlights below for you:
    iOS: About the Cellular Data setting
    Cellular data is used for data communication in cellular networks. It does not affect your ability to make or receive phone calls or to use Wi-Fi networks for Internet connectivity. If you turn off cellular data, you will be unable to:
    See the cellular data icons in the status bar (for example, LTE or 3G).
    Send or receive MMS messages. However, you can still send and receive SMS and iMessages if you're connected to a Wi-Fi network.
    Retrieve or listen to new Visual Voicemail messages. To retrieve these messages, enable Cellular Data.
    Use Personal Hotspot.
    You can adjust this setting by going to:
    iPad: Settings > Cellular
    Additional Information
    You can also enable or disable cellular data for certain iOS features from this setting:
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!
    - Judy

  • Why does my ipad say 10.6 gig used and 2.2 available

    Why does my ipad air say 10.6 GB used and 2.2 GIG available when its a 16 Gig ipad. Cant figure it out. please help

    Out of the box, your iPad only had about 13.5GB of available space.
    There are several factors that affect the amount of storage space on an iPad. First is the true amount of space on a hard drive. There is a math difference in how companies spec hard drive size and the true amount of available space. Second the iPad has some pre-installed apps that take up space. My 16GB iPad 2 started out with only 13.5GB of available space.

  • Why does my iPad say "outside of the United States"?

    OK. I give up. Where does your iPad say "outside of the United States"?  And does the iPad speak this to you? .... you hear a voice saying this? Or do you see this on the screen?????

  • Trying to download updates on iPad but the incorrect user name keeps coming up. How do I change it without changing my correct user name that works on all other devices?

    When trying to download updates on iPad, the user name it is accessing is not correct. All other devices and actions are working correctly with the correct user name. How do I fix this?

    Thank you.....to be more precise....the id and password assigned to itunes is correct and works..but....when I hit 'update all' and get the small inset screen to sign iin....it is asking for a password to a different email address. I need it to use the icloud address I always use to puchase from itunes. I don\t know where it found this new email address?

  • My Ipad doesn't connect to wifi while all other devices are connected.

    My iPad doesn't connect to wifi anymore while all other devices in the same network are connected including iPod.
    iPad was connected this morning, but quit connecting since this afternoon.
    It tries to connect, but everytime connects, it disconnect within a second, and it keep doing the same thing.
    This is the first time ever I see this problem since I started using this iPad.
    What happened to my iPad??

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • HT204053 My iPhone 4 will not allow me to sign into iCloud it says there are too many accounts on this device how can I resolve it and sign in?

    Please help me sign into icloud

    If the message says that the maximum number of free iCloud accounts has already been created, you won't be able to create a new iCloud account on that phone.  You can sign into an existing iCloud account, but not create a new one.  Your only options are to either re-use one of the accounts previously created or create a new account to use on a different iOS device (running iOS 5 or higher) or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.
